"The expressive nose conveys instantly that the aromas could be from nowhere other than Vosne with its cool and pure combination of red and dark berries, Asian-style spices, especially star anise, sandalwood and impressive array of floral elements. There is excellent richness and mid-palate density to the powerful, serious, stony and strikingly long finish that is supported by bright acidity and a firm core of ripe tannins. Extended patience will absolutely be required here. This too is warmly recommended."

"The 2021 Vosne-Romanée Aux Brûlées 1er Cru is a step up from the Les Suchots, though it was the only cuvée to be racked. Dark plummy fruit, sous-bois, crushed stone and light clove scents, complex and engaging. The palate possesses unerring symmetry, exquisite balance and poise with a pixelated finish. This is Aux Brûlées at its most finessed."
